Verdict

Flight Command, Hunting Yuppie and Wimbledonian look the three to concentrate on in this novices hurdle and the vote goes to Flight Command. The selection has been in good form of late and was a good second behind Kadoun last time and had Hunting Yuppie back in fourth the step up in trip will suit and with conditions in his favour he will be hard to beat. Hunting Yuppie rates the main danger he is another that will appreciate the step up in trip but he was behind the selection last time and their is no obvious reason why he should reverse placings. Wimbledonian is another that could go well he won well last time out when defeating Rakasa but all his best form is on fast ground and he would not want any rain. Of the remainder Zadock The Priest has shown a modicum of ability on the flat and could run well at a big price if he improves for the longer trip and hurdles but in a race full of imponderables for the winner we return to Flight Command.
